TRAP in an unfamiliar alley with the two men chasing her for a while now. Lindsey couldn’t even catch her breath for a long time while hiding and thinking that at any moment now she will be caught by those two men. “Wake up Lindsey!” She slaps her face, convinced of the fact. “You cannot be caught here, not now.” Her determination and condition for the time. All knowing that she will be in trouble and more if she couldn’t find her way and escape. “One way or another, you have to escape Lindsey.”More than just convincing herself, she then took a peak noting if the one after her is still there and just running back in circles looking for her. Just then a hand grabs her from the back. Holding her hand and pulling her down into someone’s arms. Surprised and more than taken aback, she looks up to see the person which is none other than. “Aaron?” “Got you.”Aaron whispers, the first two words that he said and more than enough misinterpreted by Lindsey. Thinking that he was there to g
“IS that a joke?”“A joke? I do not think so.”Aaron’s response and smile flustered Lindsey in an instant. Made her feel something that she shouldn’t, and the heavens know that it is a forbidden thing. ‘OH, GOD! PLEASE HELP ME!’She pleaded inside her mind with a slap or two waking her up into somewhat like a nightmare within a lustful dream. No matter how someone else turns it around, it will always fall into the category of sin. ‘I THINK I AM FALLING INTO THE SIDE OF THE WRONG HERE.’“Alright stop!” she raises her hand showing Aaron her palm and almost directly to his face. All the while trying to hide her face and her expression that sure enough is presenting all the wrong way at that moment. “Stay away from me, please.”She insisted, pushing Aaron a bit and the latter is puzzled by her sudden mood and actions. “Now you are pushing me away?”Aaron's disappointment, kind of disappointment. But still, his teasing nature that he already started is kicking in. Looking at Lindsey a
“WILL you put me down now?”Lindsey’s protest is all red and flustered by Aaron’s actions where everyone around is all eyes on them. Smiling and gossiping for a thing or two that she knew but doesn’t want to acknowledge it. “Just a bit more, where almost there.”Aaron who isn’t reading the atmosphere and only thinks that it is his job to take care of the injured one refuses. “Men will always be men.”Lindsey whispers in annoyance, covering her face and all wild in her mind of the troubles and possibilities that this will bring if anyone who knew her sees her like this. Worst with a man that isn’t her husband. “Here we are.”“Welcome to Café Latte---”“Aaron?”Taken a back and a bit puzzled. Lindsey looked ahead and around. Seeing that Aaron brought her to a small café, but with the atmosphere and welcome that is first warm and glad, then it immediately changes into surprise and expressions that are asking for the five W’s. “W-what? Where?”“Why? W-hen?”Sure, enough everyone swarm
“AARON, who is this girlfriend of yours?”The door just barge opens and slams. Surprising Lindsey and with the image of a big woman right in front of her now. “See?”Aaron giggle, pointing to the fact that he just said a while back. “Manager Lee.”He calls out smiling wide, and the woman is not all amused but instead is expressing all the disappointment of the world towards him. “Relax will you, your heart, think of your heart.”“You know I do not have that when it comes to you and your jokes.”The managers foreshadowing words. Like screaming from the inside that Aaron’s lies and jokes will not buy him a free pass, nor he will be able to fool an experience and smart woman like her. “Come on, I am not playing games right now. Besides, I didn’t confirm to everyone that what they just think is the truth. You all jump to the conclusion without even knowing the facts.”“Really?”Aaron presented his stand, confidence, and honest, which the manager is half believing and doubting him abou
“YOU really aren’t big brother Aaron’s princess?”“Isn’t that so?”Lizzy’s question that everyone jumps and asks about it to Lindsey. Which in a few moments are not once more surrounded by everyone. By means, all of the staff in the café with their pleading like expression that she should just admit her relationship with Aaron.“This is a matter of truth, my conscience and pity, right?”She somehow debating within herself. Too weak for children and especially with those pleading look on their faces. Making her consider something that is a hell of a taboo in the biggest sense.“Don’t you like Aaron?”“You know he is a bit overbearing sometimes?”“He’s proud and a hard headed.”“Bossy and kind of scary,”“But he is good at heart and a gentleman.”Everyone’s words of convincing. All rooting for Aaron and not giving up to the possibility that she is his woman. That is kind of torn into the decision of accepting Aaron and officially, like they are in still in the early stage of dating and
‘DISHEARTENED?’“Damn! What is wrong with me?”Aaron curses to himself, asking the question that happens to suddenly plague his mind with the thought that he will never have the right to even think about it. Yet.“I called my husband. He will be here for a while.”He covered his face with the palm of his hand. Hiding inside the comfort room and looking flustered in front of the mirror. “F***! What the hell!”His curses and once more. Remembering Lindsey’s words and the fact that the husband will be coming to take her. “What the hell are you thinking?”He scolds himself. All the while holding his emotion and calming himself for the things and emotions that are out of the picture and too much for him to think about it all rationally. “Damn!”He slams his fist into the closed door from the frustration and irritation that he just thinks about. “Hey! Are you alright?”Aaron’s thinking and the literal world are interrupted. A bit taken aback by Lindsey’s voice and impulsively opens the
“YOUR husband is here.”Words that is heavy as hell for Aaron to say somehow. In denial, but it was all clear from the tone of his voice and the way of his expression. He held himself and tightly on to the fact that he is currently the stupid person to even think of a thing which is a sin in anyway.“Harry?”Lindsey is taken a bit by surprise, worried that Harry might saw Aaron, and disappointed in a way that she is also in denial with the fact that she couldn’t and shouldn’t accept in anyway possible.“Don’t worry, I didn’t show even my shadow to him. Just like what you wanted.”“I-I see.”Aaron’s a bit of a rhetorical assurance that was clear enough for Lindsey to feel that awkwardness and more towards the two of them.“Miss Lindsey, someone is looking for you. He said that he is your husband.”One of the café employees suddenly barge in without knowing and reading the atmosphere around. But it was the perfect distraction that the two of them needed.“Alright, thank you.”Lindsey ju
“CUNNING, but stupid.”“You think?”Aaron slams the document on his table, with Ash smirk and sinister smile after giving him the information that he wanted.“He maybe this states Governor, but to plan something outrageous and even though he will deny and say that is only for a little threat. Kidnapping the Lawrence twins and heiress is out of the line.”“A warning might not be enough.”Aaron’s threat, clenching his fist and hard. Angry and disappointed towards their little ally in the schemes that they have in and for the state. Going over board into things and plans that is not and will never be acceptable.“The guts of a man who is in power. Thinking that he can do everything that he will, just because he is in position.”“Tsk!” he smirks, calming himself and sit back down while having these civil conversations with Ash. “The organization might not care of whatever he wanted to do, as long as he complies to the contract that he signed with us. But thinking of hurting innocent child
